The event will include a host of informative and educational exhibits for South Kentucky RECC members to visit, including health booths, civic organizations, local industry and businesses; and many others. For the children’s entertainment, there will be free rides, tattooing, and prizes.  This year’s opening act will be gospel singer Jason Catron.
